Could you get dental implants in 4 months instead of 6?

NCT ID NCT07484685

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is testing whether waiting 4 months instead of the usual 6 months after a tooth extraction is safe and effective for placing a dental implant. Forty adults who need a single tooth replaced will be randomly assigned to either the shorter or standard wait time. Researchers will measure bone changes and implant stability using X-rays and other tests to see if the faster approach works just as well.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Vega Plus implant system (Klockner)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could allow patients to get dental implants sooner after a tooth extraction, reducing overall treatment time while maintaining good bone and implant stability.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Shortening the healing time could risk poorer bone support or implant failure.
